Bad weather and tropical storms drove his comrades away. The suborn tom hadn’t left with the rest of the Skulls, he’d been left behind because of his reluctance to depart from the old territory. Alas, eventually the natural disasters forced him to move as well. Leaving the beach was one of the hardest things the young pirate had ever to do. His heart was wrenched when he fled the storm beaten sands where he had grown up.

It had taken him some weeks but Kidd had tracked his clan to the dilapidated manor within the dense pine woods. The air was no longer salty to his nose and his ears were not filled with the cries of overhanging gulls instead it smelled dusty and deeply of pine. His ears were eerily met with silence in the chilling forest. The beating sun didn’t shine upon his slate grey pelt in the dense coverage of the trees. It was a setting that would take time to get used to. It was so different from the last and Kidd wore a tiny frown on his maw as he thought back of his lost home.

The compact feline padded over the fallen pine needles and dirt. He passed by a tombstone, a shadow was cast over the large rock and the engraving was so worn away at that it was near to impossible to read. The tomcat halted and sat back on his haunches when he reached the mansion. He craned his neck and examined the large structure before him with his single golden eye. This was his new home. It smelled familiar here. It smelled of the Skulls. This had to be place. ”Ahoy!? Mateys? Is this the Skulls territory? his raspy voice called out.

Kidd stood up as he was a bit startled by Otis’s appearance and shout. It seemed the other male had suddenly decided that he remembered Kidd. Kidd gave Otis a pinched smile and tried not to look too clueless. The ragged pirate wasn’t sure if he remembered the young tom. He was though happy to know that he had arrived in Skull territory. ”Eh, calm down there lad. Yes, it is I. The great captain Kidd.” The tomcat introduced himself as he always did with a subtle air of conceit. He didn’t mention that he didn’t remember Otis’s name and he preferred to pretend that he did. He sat and watched the cheerful youth in front of him. A longing and fleeting smile crossed his maw as he found that Otis somewhat reminded of himself when was an apprentice.

His smile returned when a two femmes approached. The first stopped beside Otis and Kidd’s eye widened in a bit of surprise. It had been a long while since he had heard pirate lingo around camp. It was a pleasant surprise to know he perhaps wasn’t the only one who chose the pirate’s way of life. ”Well ahoy there lassie!” he purred in delight. Soon after Renolds approached lady Havisham made her way over to the group. Kidd was happy to the ginger deputy’s daughter. ”Havisham,” he greeted her with a curt nod of his head.

When the hairless cat approached Kidd almost mistook him for the old captain of the Skulls and he stood up straight and tall. ”Cap’n-…, he muttered before stopping himself. He realized he didn’t know this feline and slumped back down. Party central, he said? Perhaps, that was a way to describe the Skulls camp. Kidd was perhaps even more taken aback when the large mythic creature neared. He blinked his eye in wonder. ”Ahoy, land beast. Err, Ethan. Name’s Kidd” The blueish tom called to the hippogriff. He had no way of telling that they had known each other before.

Soon Havisham’s mother trotted up, wrapped in a plush scarf. It was a bit biting out here which was something Kidd wasn’t used to, but he wouldn’t be caught sporting a scarf of any kind. ”Ah, hello Lady. Let me tell you, find’in you all wasn’t easy,” the tom scuffed. He was thankful his journey was over and that he was home even if it wasn’t the home he used to have. So many familiar faces and a few new ones out to greet him. He thought back to the faces that he missed. His single visible eye narrowed in thought.

Kidd cocked his head to the side in confusion. Was that a little Aolani? He blinked his golden eye to be sure. ”Heey, lad. Maxwell.” The pirate tried the name finding it strange to say. ”I’m Kidd! Yes the pleasure is yours!” The older feline crowed as he did sometimes get caught up in conceit. He was beginning to believe that it was possible a young clouded leopard had only joined the Skulls, especially since he hadn’t heard anything about Aolani since he’d been back, but when the large leopard approached and stood beside her son Kidd knew that his initial thought was true. His jaw dropped a bit in surprise. ”Aolani! Ahoy, lassie! Is this..? This here is your boy?” He was most happy to see Aolani but he was shocked. He didn’t know she’d had a litter. I musta missed it.., he thought a bit upset with himself. Well it seemed she did have kits now. The last he remembered, she’d announced her marriage to that cougar.
